Answer:

y = 6.22

You can solve this in two ways.

1.) Use SOH CAH TOA:

I typically start off by labeling the sides of the triangle with H (hypotenuse), O (opposite), and A (adjacent). Because I need to figure out what y is when given an angle and 4, I will use CAH, or cosine.

\cos(angle)  =  \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

\cos(50)  =  \frac{4}{y}

\cos(50)  \times y = 4

y =  \frac{4}{ \cos(50) }

y = 6.22

2.) Use Law of Sines:

Solve for the last angle inside the triangle first.

180 - (50 + 90) = 40

Then use the angle you found (40°) in the equation.

\frac{4}{ \sin(40) }  =  \frac{y}{ \sin(90) }

\frac{4}{ \sin(40) }  \times  \sin(90)  = y

y = 6.22

X and y is the variable <br> 4x-7y=3<br> x-7y=-15<br><br> what is the answer please
andrezito [222]
Use linear combination to solve this. It is much faster than substitution. I would start by multiplying the bottom equation by -1.
<span>4x-7y=3
-x+7y=15</span>
Then, add the two equations together. The result is:
3x=18.
You've eliminated one variable. Now you can solve for the other one.
Divide both sides by 3 to get
x=6
Plug this into one of the original equations, then solve for y
-(6)+7y=15
7y=21
y=3

Check your work by plugging these values into both equations to see if they remain true

densk [106]

Answer: 24

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Micah is buying items for a party and that there are 6 cups in a package and 8 plates in a package.

We are further told that he wants to have the same amount of each item. The least number of packages of cups he needs to buy would be calculated by finding the least common multiple of 6 and 8.

Multiples of 6 = 6, 12 18, 24, 30

Multiples of 8 = 8, 16, 24, 32, 40

The answer is 24 cups
